How does Dubai fit into Zombie Capitalism? Didn't Dubai offer all the great things portrayed in some of Ayn Rands novels? Didn't work even with the huge and continuous milking of oil revenues. Check out some these pictures;

This however will be a Zombie Capitalism:

the private sector’s reductions in debt will counter the public sector’s attempts to stimulate the economy via debt-financed spending.

Growth, if it occurs, will not be sufficiently high to prevent growing unemployment, and growth is likely to evaporate as soon as stimulus packages are removed.


Thanks
